the problem will be in the gearbox on the wiper motor ,inside this gearbox on teh end where the drive comes out is a set of contacts and the brushes are not making contact or the path has worn out or broke ,so best advice is to ignore the fault as a new motor is not that cheap unless you can find one in the scrap yard

Go to a Mini main dealership with proof that you own the vehicle. Also take along the servicing record. Using the VIN chassis number on the vehicle (and also in the service book) the dealer can look up the radio code for you but they may charge a fee. Most main dealers will give it to you for free if you ask nicely or are having any other work done on the car by them.

I'm puzzled by one thing though: a 2007 Cooper should still have been under the manufacturer's warranty, so a duff gearbox would be replaced by a Mini dealer. Part of the job would be to re-input the radio code. If this is what's happened and they couldn't provide you with the code I'd complain vociferously and get it fixed elsewhere in future.
